Atlanta rapper Da Great Ape is slowly climbing up the ranks. The Warner Records signee's steadily been making noise with the release of his last project, Last Dope Boy Left. Now, he's readying a big takeover, even if the world is at a standstill right now. This week, he teamed up with the one and only Rick Ross for his new record, "Quarter Brick." Doing it for the hustlers and the streets, "Quarter Brick" takes inspiration from Project Pat and Three 6 Mafia.
"Honestly, I was in the studio f*cking off and my producer pulled up the beat that he was working on and that’s how the song came about." Da Great Ape said about the song in a statement. "Shoutout to Project Pat. He’s one of the OG’s that inspired me to do this music sh*t.
Quotable Lyrics
You gotta keep it ten toes
Blood all on a n***a socks
The money and extendos
In the Red Bottom box
Shawty let that ass bounce
Smokin', it's my last ounce
Spillin' hunnids on the floor
Twerk it 'til she pass out
